“In the UK, through our net zero strategy, we’re pioneering a green industrial revolution, with public investment leveraging billions of pounds of private funding into whole new industries from offshore wind to carbon capture and storage allowing us in the UK to level up our whole country with thousands of new green jobs. And by partnering with developing and emerging economies to invest in climate-smart infrastructure, and meeting our $100 billion climate finance commitment”

The press says the Great Salt Lake is shrinking due to the burning of fossil fuels.

Scientists say that isn’t true.

“February 1, 1900

Great Salt Lake Shrinking.

The reason why the Great Salt Lake in Utah is growing smaller, according to Prof. J. E. Talmage, is that the volume of water from its four tributary rivers is being more or less diverted by irrigation. Prof. J. E. Talmage says the water of the lake is growing each year more acrid as it shrinks in size, and he thinks that in another 100 years it will be replaced by a glittering bed of dry salt.—San Francisco Chronicle.

“January 3, 1936

GREAT SALT LAKE SHRINKING

Great Salt Lake is. still shrinking. This is largely due to the fact that farms and cities are using more and more of the water from the streams that previously fed it. As a matter of fact, Great Salt Lake has been shrinking for many centuries. It was once a great inland sea known as Lake Bonneville. At that time it covered some 19,000 square miles of central Utah or an area equal to twice that of Lake Erie. Traces of shoreline have been found at 17 distinct levels, the highest being 1,000 feet above the present level.”

In 1900, electric cars had problems with range, recharge time, cost, battery life and a lack of recharge stations along the road.

THE BROOKLYN DAILY EAGLE. NEW YORK, SUNDAY, OCTOBER 28, 1900.

“the machine may stop in ten instead of twenty miles, as had been counted on. Again, if the power gives out between stations, it is impossible to replenish. At the present time, charging stations are few and far be- tween. In the near future, there will undoubtedly be more of them, but at present they are scarce. Another bad point in the system is the fact that it takes from two to three hours to charge a machine properly. The battery must gradually absorb the fluid electricity. It cannot be forced upon it, any more than a man can be forced to eat a square meal in two seconds. It takes time, and sometimes time !s precious. Furthermore, the deterioration of a battery is much  more rapid than the deterioration of any other system of machines.

In this case, the inventor will have many hard knots to untie. First, he must construct a stowage battery, which will carry a larger supply of the fluid. Second, the battery must not deteriorate so rapidly. Third, some attachment must be devised for re- charging more rapidly. This might be done if all stations were supplied with some quick charging device, or if the manufacturers would agree upon a standard battery which could be interchanged at the station for one already charged.”

“The storage battery is, in my opinion, a catchpenny, a sensation, a mechanism for swindling the public by stock companies. The storage battery is one of those peculiar things which appeals to the imagination, and no more perfect thing could be desired by stock swindlers than that very selfsame thing. … Just as soon as a man gets working on the secondary battery it brings out his latent capacity for lying.”

“Deadly Heat at Chicago.

Chicago, Aug. 10.—Corpses found among lumber heaps, women dropping dead while washing, men falling from ice wagons and drays were the thermometers that registered yesterday’s heat. A dead man named Bertram was stumbled upon by John Slift in the afternoon, the sun having killed and left him lying in a lumber yard. Mrs. Mary Dahil, aged 38, employed in a Thirty- first street laundry, died from the effects of the heat, Many others were prostrated. About 6 o’clock a bolt of lightning tore through the black clouds and struck with a deafening crash at the corner of Hermitage avenue and Polk street. ‘Two big balls of fire, each as large as a half bushel, fell in the middle of the street and for a moment blinded the fifteen or twenty persons who were standing in the vicinity. Several men were hurled to the ground and a live girl was slightly burned.”

“Dear Attorney General Garland: We represent investigative journalist James O’Keefe and the not-for-profit news media company Project Veritas in defense of your Justice Department’s protracted attack on them. … You and I both know that if the New York Times gained possession of the diary of former President Trump’s adult daughter, it would have published it page-by-page for weeks on end, selectively editing the content to publish the most salacious entries in the diary, without regard to the harm it would have done to the person in question. Mr. O’Keefe and Project Veritas took an additional step that further affirmed their responsible journalism. Through an attorney, the journalists turned Ms. [Ashley] Biden’s diary and personal effects into local law enforcement in the jurisdiction in which the source had indicated the items were found. … The facts and law here lead to the inescapable conclusion that your prosecutors in the Southern District of New York have engaged in an unprecedented and politically motivated attack on the free press, without factual or legal justification, and in violation of DOJ’s regulations, guidelines, and your pronouncements. … How on earth can you allow the attack on Project Veritas and its journalists to continue, and avoid being fairly tagged as a partisan, political hypocrite who wields your power in defense of an adult child of the President? There appears to be no adult supervision in the U.S. attorney’s office for the Southern District of New York. It is for you to decide whether to allow your prosecutors to continue to set dangerous precedent, gut First Amendment protections, and facilitate the decline of a free and independent press, or to put your money where your mouth is, demonstrate that your memorandum was not a petty political ploy aimed at the prior administration, and terminate this abhorrent action that threatens a free and independent press.”

“These are dark times for our Nation, as my beautiful home, Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida, was raided, and occupied by a large group of FBI agents.

Nothing like this has ever happened to a President of the United States before, and it’s important that you know that it wasn’t just my home that was violated – it was the home of every patriotic American who I have been fighting for since that iconic moment I came down the Golden Escalators in 2015.

I stood up to the Radical Left’s corruption. I restored power to the people and truly delivered for our Country like we have never seen before. The establishment hated it.

Now, as they watch my endorsed candidates win big victories and see my dominance in all polls, they are trying to stop the Republican Party and me once more. The lawlessness, political persecution, and Witch Hunt, must be exposed and stopped.”
